mason believed specifically that the presidency -- and he was not alone in this -- but mason believed the presidency was a tyrant in waiting. he wanted to have instead of a single executive, he wanted to have a three-man board. that would govern. he was particularly fearful of the executive powers to conduct war. and when the time came, and agaie we weren't there. and unfortunately, james madison's wonderful notes don't include the best stuff, what was said out of independence hall over drinks at city tavern, and wherever else the delegates conducted the real business of the convention. i think it's safe to assume that washington in his own way tried to persuade mason in effect trust me. now remember, in my opinion, the constitution never would have been enacted if people did not believe that washington would be the first president. it was absolutely the key. and it barely passed in virginia, in new york by three votes. here in virginia i think by 10:00 over the opposition of people like george mason, patrick henry. thomas jefferson wasn't wild about the new convention. he didn't much
